How White Trash Am I?
Posted by TFG on April 27th, 2007
I’m going to Vegas for Interop in a couple of weeks to check out some prospects for my New Tiny Bidness. Guess where I’m staying?
Look, it was a $99/night on hotels.com. I won’t deny the dirty-old-man appeal of the probable fiction of a bevy of PYTs in orange shorts and tank-tops everywhere I look, 24/7. Who could? OK, you’re a better man than me…can’t be much of a surprise.

Damn, from the title and logo, I thought I’d found yet another memetic blogosphere dealio I could use at my place, seeing I have nothing much to say over there tonight.
So, rock on, enjoy the trip, good luck to the business. I’m nursing a cold one or two, looking forward to be rid of the freakin’ on-call pager come Monday.

Sorry, I’m not cool enough to make a meme. I’m playing nut-peddler poker waiting to go to bed so I can get up with the chickens and drive back to San Antonio with a trailer full of ‘antiques.’
And drinking some Keystone Light, another WT affectation.

As a former “antique” hauler myself, I’ve used the phrase “Salvation Army” before moving the stuff.
Didn’t work for me. If you have any success with that, let me know.

TFG, I knew where you were staying before I expanded the entry. I actually stayed there years ago, back when it was the San Remo, but I guess that’s like saying I hooked up with one of the Hooters girls before the implants.

I was curious when I saw “new tiny bidness,” so I googled it…
“Interop brings together IT and business leaders to see all of the latest technologies in action.”
Definitely different that the old tiny bidness. Doesn’t sound like as much fun, but this one might actually be more profitable.
Maybe you and the wife could put together a live music night at Interop 2008. How many transformers you think you could blow there???

…I was at the Imperial Palace in 1997. After much curiosity & tips, my friend inquired regarding the fullness of the upper torso extremities waitresses displayed. They said they stuffed socks underneath their mammarical protuberences. I submit this was done with huge asthetic effect.

Good luck finding anything “Tiny” at Hooters.

Heard you on the radio yesterday while out at Lake Travis cleaning the boat. Guess you’ll be sticking with XP, yes?

You heard me??? I haven’t been on any radio shows. Very weird.

That is weird. I was only listening with one ear, but the guy says here’s a call from The Fat Guy, and this guy comes on with a question about switching from XP to “one of your advertisers.” I think the station is WOAI, although it’s supposedly in San Antone, which ordinarily would mean it should be a K something. The host advised sticking with XP. Having never heard your voice I could not say it was you. So if you say it wasn’t, it wasn’t. Must have been a senior moment.

I’m starting to have my own, so I might have called a radio show. But I doubt it. I’m not that desperate for help yet, to ask a radio dude.

….yeah…TF…I heard you, too….bout the same time as Dick. Only - you were on the Martin Burnback show on KLIF 570AM…railing a good rip about the KC airport spending taxpayer dollars to install special foot-washing basins fer Muzzlums (Muck the Fuzzlums) in the airport restrooms. Then I took an objective step back, and thunk, “…ya, know…if yer gonna blow up a buncha innocent folk in the name ‘a allah..jus so you kin git ta paradise, ‘an drank pina coladas & have bloody virgin sex with 12 year old girls….ya GOTTA have clean tootsies!!!” Then I went back to weedin’ the pool bed….

The old San Remo got cleaned pretty nice. The rooms aren’t the greatest, but the casino was clean and of course attractive

I couldn’t have guessed where you were staying-I’d probably be staying at Art Bell’s up the road in Pahrump were in the greater LV area…but what’s this about foot-basins for the Musselmen??? I mean, I know “Primitive” Baptists from our ancestral home in Kentucky who are into that whole foot-washing thing as well, and some of them have been in this country for 300 years-so why hasn’t this issue been addressed before? I guess the threats of blowing up planes and buildings have something to do with it-squeaky wheel and grease and all that…
